TPE chemistry and the type of engineering plastic play a critical role in influencing wettability.
Peel ABS (N/mm) 2.72
Type of Failure C/A
GLS285-085 is an overmold TPE which requires no drying and bonds to ABS, SAN and ASA with very good
adhesion after insert molding as measured by the 90° peel test and illustrated in Figure 3.
Optimal adhesion values are also obtained for
overmolds onto PC (Lexan), ABS (Cycoloy), PC/ABS(Cycolac) and PC/PBT (Xenoy) as demonstrated in Figure
5.
